Meet Your Award Travel Expert
Hi, I’m Chris—the founder of Travel Is The Point and your go-to award travel expert.
I specialize in helping people turn their credit card points and airline miles into unforgettable travel experiences. Whether you’re sitting on a stash of Chase Ultimate Rewards, Amex Membership Rewards, or frequent flyer miles, I’m here to help you get the maximum value from them—without the stress.
Why I Started Travel Is The Point
After years of learning the ins and outs of airline loyalty programs and credit card reward systems, I realized most people have the points—but not the time or knowledge to use them well. Booking award travel can be confusing and frustrating. I created Travel is the Point to change that.
Today, I help travelers:
Find and book award flights with points & miles
Navigate partner airline sweet spots
Plan complex itineraries including round-the-world and multi-city trips
Discover new ways to maximize rewards across programs

I don’t just give generic advice—as a points and miles expert I offer hands-on support through my award booking service to actually find and secure flights using your rewards. You’ll get recommendations based on real-world availability and expert insights that come from booking for hundreds of clients.
I stay on top of the latest changes in award charts, airline partnerships, and point transfer options—so you don’t have to.

Families looking to stretch their points farther
Couples booking a dream honeymoon
Business travelers wanting to fly premium without the premium price tag
Anyone who wants to stop hoarding points and actually use them
